What inspired you to become a teacher, and what do you enjoy most about teaching your subject?
Hi! I am a veteran teacher with over 30 years of experience of working with children whether it be as an educator, assistant or tutor. I primarily worked in grades Kindergarten through fifth but have gained middle school experience as well. I retired in 2016 only to return in 2023 because I love working with students-especially in small groups or individually.
I’m a mother of a 15-year old daughter who has Aspergers and am a native to South Florida.
What are some of your hobbies or interests outside of the classroom?
I am involved in my church and groups linked to my church. I enjoy making jewelry and creating sticker designs using planners.
What was your favorite subject in school and why?
My favorite subject in college was speech and debate. I enjoyed taking topics, researching them, and defending them. Then taking the opposite stance on the same topic. It helped me to open my eyes and see life’s perspectives.
Anything else we should know about you?
I own a cat named Priscilla Jean Presley. Prissy, for short.
